Flaming- "Here's chapter two! Thank you so much for the reviews."

Kai- "Blackangelz23, the reason the one before was short was because it was a redo of an other chapter that no one reviewed on. So Flaming's theory was to make it short so people would review, cause they wanted to know what happened next"

Flaming- "Thank you Alinor, even though you just said it was a good story, it still helped. Anyway that's better than not reviewing at all!"

Kai-"Ray's gurl… hm interesting… uh anyway we read your story we thought it was great. We were happy to do so because when we ask people to read ours they never do, and we now how that feels so… yeah."

Flaming- "Anyway if you want this story to continue please review. And if you think I could do something better or you have an idea please tell me, cause I'm a BAD writer and I'd like to improve. Plus, I know a lot you all have great ideas… so I'm all ears."

The Dream

Inside the dojo was subtle, with the exception of the silently breathing people inside. Although where wouldn't it be muted at midnight?

Dream-

"Are you… ok?" a little girl questioned no older than five at most.

A younger version of Kai groaned in response as he lay on the icy floor of the abbey.

"What… happened to your face?" the silver eyed girl asked again looking at the triangular markings on the slate haired boy's face, not being able to recall the design being there before.

"Pl-please d-don't touch them," Kai begged with a hoarse voice.

"Do they… hurt?" she queried as the moonbeams hit her eyes illuminating their innocent sheen.

"Y-yes-s," Kai choked on his words as tears slid down his face.

"Is there a way I could help?" she interviewed concerned for her new cellmate.

"No…" Kai moaned as the tears rolled down the bluish tattoos increasing the pain.

"Would a… hug… help?" the little girl interrogated once again, remembering when she got hugs from her mom and she felt better.

"No, n-not really," he whined in a heartbreaking tone.

"It might help… it does for me. It shows that someone cares, and that's nice to know," she spoke softly just above a whisper.

"Why d-do y-you care?" he silently sobbed to himself.

"Because that's my job… that's why I'm here… to care," she explained from the bottom of them heart truthfully.

"O-only if y-you d-don't tell B-Boris," Kai agreed knowing no harm would come of it.

She pulled him into a gentle hug, and rubbed his back tenderly. They stayed like that for a minute then pulled apart, and then they just stared at each other.

"Do you feel better?" she asked looking into his eyes that stopped watering.

"Yeah… thanks," Kai mumbled feeling happier.

End of Dream-

Kai opened his eyes and looked at the read numbered clock that read 5:00 am. At least I got a little more sleep tonight. Who was that girl? I don't remember her ever being at the abbey? Although, I don't remember a lot of things…. Kai thought sorrowfully to himself as he walked outside in his usual attire.

I wonder if Rayne is going to be there this morning? He asked himself mentally as her words popped into his head. 'Isn't the breeze nice in the mornings, it's not even worth coming out in the afternoon.' Maybe that was a clue meaning she would be there… ugh who knows, I sure don't.

Once Kai got the park he glanced at the bench where she was yesterday, to find it empty. Maybe she's somewhere else in the park, he told himself as he scanned the area secretively hoping she was there.

"You look like you're looking for someone… not to mention troubled," a concerned voice interrupted his thoughts.

Kai turned around to come face to face with Rayne. Seeing his expression, she laughed and remarked, "You look surprised to see me."

"No… how do you know my name?" Kai quizzed hoping to pry the answer out of her.

"Didn't we go over this yesterday?" she questioned remembering perfectly the whole conversation.

"Yes, but you never told me," Kai defended still having faith that she would tell.

"Hm, well there's a reason for that. If I wanted you to know I would of told you," she stated going mysterious again.

"Look just answer me," he barked getting sick of having to do this every time.

"What do you know?" she asked simply skipping the question completely.

"What does this have to do with anything?" Kai quizzed wanting her to just spit it out.

"Do you want to know the answer or not?" she continued she eyes sparking in a somewhat familiar way.

Kai shook his head at the thought and agreed, "Fine, but you better tell me."

Rayne sighed, "I'm sorry I'm not going to tell you, you have to find the answer within yourself. I'm just here to help… and to care."

'Because that's my job… that's why I'm here… to care.' The words from the dream replayed in his head.

"So are you going to tell me or not, cause I don't have all day you know," she commented slightly smiling.

Kai shook his head trying to come back to reality, "What do you mean find the answer with in myself?" Kai asked suspicious.

"Um, I…. You know the guy?" she gave a sad answer being completely off guard.

Flaming- "Well I hope this was better blackangelz23. Sorry the old one was short."

Kai- "Remember to review or this will discontinue."

Flaming- "Hope you liked it, and tell me if you want it to go on."

Kai- "So as I said before, review or else."
